[edit] My ridiculously retarded signature problem

 :D Oh, how do I sign here? When I use the 4 tildes like in the old wiki, it directed the link to the old wiki. O_O I keep typing it all out, which is annoying... Rose Of Kali RoseOfKali Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg 08:03, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Like I did just now by accident... >_< Meant to do 5 tildes for timestamp... 08:04, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Signatures should be the same here as the other... only thing is the image, which isn't uploaded on this wiki. And also, if you use your old signature, don't forget that you're "Rose Of Kali" here, and "RoseOfKali" there (no spaces/spaces). You'll just need to rework the coding from the old one, so it fits here.

Oh, and so you know, the image policy here's a bit different. User images need the user's name in the title. So your RoseOfKaliSIG would need to be named User_Rose_Of_Kali_SIG.jpg. (Of course, it doesn't need to be called "SIG", but the "User Rose Of Kali" part would be important.) So the total coding for your same signature here would probably look like this:

[[User:Rose Of Kali|Rose Of Kali]] [[Image:User_Rose_Of_Kali_SIG.jpg]]

...simply a matter of re-uploading your signature image here. :D -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 08:18, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm still confused about why it put the sig link (the red link above) with NO spaces PLUS the image link (my old wiki signature) when ALL I TYPED WAS FOUR TILDES. Is the shortcut here also 4 tildes, or something else? I'm confused... O_o (I know about the image uploading thing.) Here, I will type 4 tildes and this is what it comes out as: RoseOfKali Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg 08:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Check your preferences page... did you copy+paste any coding into your preferences page here? Maybe you were matching settings on both wikis? Because from the looks of it, you've got the same signature on this wiki as you do on GuildWiki. Only the links here don't work, because it's trying to link to GWW versions of the pages (and they don't technically exist here). The four-tildes system should be the same for any wiki using the MediaWiki coding (which applies to just about every wiki on the web.) Definately check out your preferences here, and try fixing the signature's code that way. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 08:39, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I didn't even touch the preferences here... O_O Bah.. Guess I'll have to type it all out until I figure out what's wrong... :( Here it goes: Rose Of Kali 08:42, 24 October 2007 (UTC) >_<

Hmm... Maybe I did touch them at some point... O_o I'll upload the image later... Rose Of Kali 08:44, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Did you somehow copy over all your preferences from GuildWiki? Or, if you've made this account a little while ago, perhaps you just copied it in there without remembering. :D -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 08:47, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I guess I must have. :P Oh well. ^_^ YAY for short signatures! Rose Of Kali 08:51, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Looks good now! :D See? Wasn't that retarded. Fixed it in only what, about an hour? -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 10:43, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Do you have an image of a rose lying around that's 19pix by 19pix? GWW:SIGN's policy requires signature images to be that size. --  (CoRrRan / talk) 10:45, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

19x19 now? That seems rather... limiting, no? Wonder how that decision came about. Anyway, Kali, you could probably stick with a rose head and skip the stem, if you wanted to change the image in that way. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 10:56, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, it has been that ever since the GWW:SIGN policy came into effect. Personally I wouldn't mind having the image be 38pix wide with a strict limitation of 19pix in height, but that could be discussed here: Guild Wars Wiki:Sign your comments/Draft_070731. The discussion on the draft isn't very active anymore though. --  (CoRrRan / talk) 11:03, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, if I leave just the rose without a stem, it's gonna look retarded, just a dark blot... :( Damn it, now I have to make a new one again.... *sigh* Rose Of Kali 03:07, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

If you could get an image of a rose from the top down (just the head), that would look pretty cool. Can't be hard to find a basic image like that, either, if you don't just make your own. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 03:17, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Got a new one now. How'd ya like it? I'm still not sure, it's pretty, but too pink... Doesn't really fit my necromancer primary. ^_^ And you have NO IDEA how hard it actually is to find something that doesn't look like an inkblot in 19x19. I had to crop and resize this thing to where it looks nothing like the original. Rose Of Kali 04:07, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Hah, that's better. First time I've really messed with photoshop. :D Me likes blue. XD Rose Of Kali 04:47, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Nifty. What version of Photoshop do you use? -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 05:00, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

8.0 Rose Of Kali 05:05, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Hehe, I keep messing with the sig now. ^_^ Rose Of Kali 05:07, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I think I'm done with it for now. :P Rose Of Kali 05:08, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Nifty. The all-blue looks really nice. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 05:32, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
